By Manchester, England – Manchester City have been declared Premier League champions for an unprecedented fourth season in a row after securing a crucial 3-1 victory over West Ham on the final day of the season. This remarkable achievement marks City’s sixth Premier League title in the past seven seasons under the leadership of manager Pep Guardiola.
The win at the Etihad Stadium ensured that City finished two points ahead of title rivals Arsenal, who had pushed them all the way in an enthralling title race. The victory was spearheaded by a outstanding performance from Phil Foden, who scored two goals and was named player of the match.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Foden expressed his confidence and determination, saying, “Not just me, all the lads have played in important games, we’ve played this scenario over. We were confident. It’s paid off. The [nickname] sniper is going to stay forever now. This feeling will never get old. I want this winning feeling always.”
Manchester City’s fourth consecutive Premier League title sees them surpass their city rivals Manchester United, becoming the only team in the competition’s history to achieve such a feat.
